Well, Roy, if you can’t do leather (although a sneaking cynicism at the back of my head suspects it may be synthetic!) there’s always the pdf over at DriveThruRPG.com!

The Balkoth? You picked up the Moose writeup, then? Great!
It does sound as if this Sartar book has to be on my list of “ludicrously overpriced but I’m going to buy it anyway”, if you find it useful: after all, you’ve already got all the background, same as I have.

It’s funny because i’m very interesting by this Runequest edition, ’cause of the leather cover !
My father will remake all my more interesting roleplayging games books with leather and hardcover cover I’m very serious !

Have nice read and enjoy with this game. A new edition for a traditional roleplaying games, one of the best over the ages….

Thanks a lot Mister Stafford and all the people who do their best to have fun with Glorantha !
Thanks to Mongoose.

It’s a shame I won’t be able to buy this. I’m vegan, and will have to stick to my original RQ 2 gamebooks, until Mongoose bring this out without the leather cover.

Have you seen the Warhammer Arthur book? Full of his stuff (all dark ages), half of which you could transplant straight into a gloranthan publication. Very nice

If funds allow I hope to use Jon for more of the Gloranthan Adventures series. Jon’s already worked with Moon Designs, he did the HQ2 cover, and both Jeff Richard and Simon Bray (Art Director) are fans of his. I passed this onto them, so I reckon there’s a chance
As for him being expensive, put this way he’s always prepared to work with small publishers for a reasonable price. Best ask Jon directly.

Absolutely gorgeous!!! I hope to see more of his work on future publications and I wish they had used some of his art for the Sartar book cover (instead of using old art). Is he expensive BTW?

That’s a hell of a review.
I do love that book.

*nod*
I’ve pretty much always enforced a rule like that anyways, especially for the “emotional” augments.

I did like the idea that so many important factors could up an ability though. I suspect I won’t miss it most of the time.

I am tempted to take an idea from another game and allow the one-augment rule to be broken if you pay an HP for it. (I won’t even consider this tweak until I’ve actually played a bit, of course.) Basically, the concept is that you have the one augment, but if the contest means enough to you, you can pay an additional point to bring in other augments. You are effectively committing this to be a higher risk and more heavy narrative outcome by doing so, however.

It may be totally unnecessary in HQ2, of course, but I find the idea interesting.
